No Wendy. I am still stiff and sore and have to do things that missed out while I was at the Market. Have to finish a Crocheted Blanket for a Baby Shower next Sunday.

do you feel as if you make a profit on these? It seems the time involved and the amount of thread it would be hard to break even.

Yes I think I would make a profit but you don't expect to get paid for the time you spend making them. But isn't that the same for all Craft?

Love them! I had real African Violets, but a move of house and they lost their good spot. None now.
Had plenty like the ones you have stitched.
Of course my favs were different.
Had a blue one with curly edges and lots of petals. It looked like a rose in AV size.
The other blue one I had looked like a single petal daisy in miniature.

I too love African Violets but my house is very Dark and don't have a good spot for them. I would live to have a pattern for the ones with Variegated Leaves.

I had to go back and have a second, then third, look at these. I had no idea that they were not real !! I was wondering what a prayer plant was! Great work.

Ah, the violets look so good! I "rescue" violets from Lowes when they are so sad looking and onsale for $1 or so. Then it's waiting to see what color they are. Have 4 gorgeous ones blooming, 2 pink, one deep purple, and one burgundy.
Whose lovely designs are you using? I agree to have a demo and take orders.

It is a prayer plant ......and you are wanting to do well at your Easter market...right??? Maybe you need to make one for sample only, so you do not regret fast sales of your beautiful stitching! They are most beautiful and the new owners will be sure to have many years of people asking how they are getting their African violets to bloom so well! Hope that your sales do just as well this year, as last, as everyone from previous years are going to have spread the news, that it is from you, that they purchased these wonderful plants that need not be watered. Good Luck and looking forward to your post market posting. (Hugs) Pam

Last year I made the pink and purple African Violets and on setup day a lady came past and bought them. I was a little put out as I was hoping I could show others and maybe take orders. Didn't make me any happier even though I had the money in my pocket. Bet it doesn't happen this year.

Amazing. They look great. I probably would water them accidently :-) I hope for a successful market

Thought I should put that onto the pot, because if they are watered they will droop. They are stitched on WWS and Organza so they won't fall apart but they certainly wouldn't look healthy.
